TPU's Core i7 Overclocking and Feedback

Been looking for a bench stable speed for the w3540, i think i found it so far, but will be trying to go higher, right now it's on hte bloodrage since it's prob the best responding board for me to get bench stable speeds. So far i hit

Freq : 4953.71 MHz (215.38 * 23)

But that isn't as stable as i want it yet...

But for today so far the winner is.....
Freq : 4836.28 MHz (210.27 * 23)

What? wow o.O

Thanks for making me feel even worse about having a 1.66ghz dual core with bad architecture LOL jkjk

You are just amazing SV :p ME WANT 5ghz ++++++ :p
 
I want to see a 3DV score with that ;)
 
very good job SV :respect:
 
Holy Sh*t SystemViper! That overclock is amazing! Plus your ram is running crazy fast! 6-6-6-18 is amazing! I'm very impressed!

What voltages was that with?

Yea, i'll be trying the 4.8ghz for 3D06 later.....and vantage :banghead:

the vore was 1.58v for the 4.9 and i think the ram was 1.65, thanks that board likes those 1G dominator 1866 sticks

very good job SV :respect:

thanks bro, so whehn you gonna show us some patty! :eek:

are you referring to my avatar? :laugh:
 
Thanks SV, those GT Dominators? Where did you find those 1866's? I see the 2000's for $300+ on the egg
 
Ya but that's an amazing find.
 
hello All, most hear me a lot in the GPU section, but guess what, i7 baby.

Furthermore, i was lucky enough to score a D0 it seems, (SLBEJ on the box)

motherboard is Asus P6T Deluxe V2

ram until next week is Corair dominator 2x1gb DDR3-1800, but its rated at 2.0v, and the mobo has a sticker on it saying over 1.65 can perma-fuck my shiny new D0...

any words of wisdom wether i should hold out for new ram? i wont be overclocking at all until then, as i dont want to push at all on a stock cooler.

EDIT: i7 920 if it wasnt obvious :)

I know going over 1.65v is no big deal, Ive gone over many times. However i dont know about running 2.0v for daily use. I'll let the others chime in and post their opinions.

more what im worried about is first boot, im happy to run them at say 1.65v for 1333mhz, but im thinking they might try default boot up to some speed right? and hopefully voltage set by the board, not reading the VID of the mem chips.
 
The motherboard on auto settings will not run the ram over 1.6V TBH. You'll be fine. Just get a tripple channel kit soon. sno.lcn has a kickass set up right now I would jump on, personally.

all up and running and might i say DAMNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN this baby has power.

rams running fine at 1333 for now, gunna dive on a 1600 6gb triple kit or two in a weeks time, and a good cooler.
 
when you go from 3gb to 6gb you get a temp increase

Idk if its everyone but I have seen a few so make sure you have a good cooler
 
From what I've read yes temps will increase with more than 3GB...

The new Titan Fenrir seems to be the best Air Cooler at present... (typical, just after I go and buy a CoolerMaster V8 :nutkick: )
 
21 to 2 the votes in favor of yes, :laugh: I see my avatar changing soon!
 
OMG!!! CP told me I hadn't turned off HT and look at this - not very stable mind!!

I cannot believe this chip!
